Possbility of data recovery, is it true?

Hello, A customer told us that there is a data recovery company that can by pass IMac pro 2020 with t2 chipset GPU to get their data back, I am wondering if that is possible. GPU is shorted and Imac wont boot at all. I informed customers that data are almost impossible to be retrived, and they are upset and think we are BS them. Of course being up in Canada, people like to believe that usa will have a better solution for it, a US data recovery company they searched on google told customer that they could get the data back without needing worry about T2 chip or Imac not working all that, I do not believe it at all, but just in case, if anyone knows if it is possible or just BS. The GPU is dead for sure on the 2020 Imac pro, shorted with 0oms on its power rail. I understand if GPU can be replaced, then there is data, but by pass GPU or get another Logicboard and by pass T2 .... is that possible to get data?

Thanks for reading and input please

maybe they will just replace the bad gpu ?

That would make sense, but I think my customer was told they did not have to change anything, and can by pass GPU or the worst would be a new logic board and transfer the ssd over then data would be back.

As far as I can tell, those options are impossible to get data back. but it is just my opinion.

for data transfer i think they need to swap cpu, ssd , t2 chip. it's not an easy task so i assume price is not in the low level....
